Column and line charts
A column and line chart is a combination of two other chart types. It is useful for
combining two distinct but related data series like sales over time (column) with a
profit margin trends (line).
You can choose the number of columns and lines in the Chart Wizard. So for example
you might have two columns with two lines to represent two product lines with the
sales figures and profit margins of both.
The chart in Figure 95 has manufacturing cost and profit data for two products, over
a period of time (six months in 2007). To create this chart, first highlight the table
and start the Chart Wizard. Choose the Column and Line chart type with two lines
and the data series in rows. Then give it a title to highlight the aspect you want to
show. The lines are different colors at this stage and don’t reflect the product
relationships. When you finish with the Chart Wizard, highlight the chart, click on the
line, right-click and chose Format Data Series.
On this tab there are a few things to change: The colors should match the products so
both Ark Manufacturing and its profit line are blue and Prall Manufacturing is red.
The lines need to be more noticeable so make the lines thicker by increasing the
width to 0.08.
Figure 95: Column and line chart
For the background, highlight the chart wall, right-click and choose Format Wall. On
the Area tab, change the drop-down box to show Gradient. Choose one of the preset
gradient patterns and make it lighter by going to the Transparency tab and making
the gradient 50% transparent.
To make the chart look cleaner without the grid, go to Insert > Grids and deselect
the X-axis option.
